Otay Lakes, La Jolla Cove
9:53 am
Spent 2-1/2 hours at Otay Lakes. No pelagic birds of any kind
Got to the Cove at around 9:15.
In the first 10 minutes, about 1000 black-vented shearwaters, sooty and pink- footed shearwaters, many phalaropes. Scatterings of storm-petrels, including irony of ironies, a wedge-rumped only 100 feet offshore.
There is no wind the sea is utterly calm.
There is believe it or not plenty of parking
